This wine, named "GAIA&REY" in honour of Angelo Gaja's daughter Gaja and grandmother Rey, is classified as DOC Langhe, just like other single-vineyard wines.

The soil of the Langhe region, which was once a seabed, is very complex, consisting of clay, marl, tuff, sand and sulfurous chalk.

This diverse soil imparts complexity to the grapes, resulting in elegant, structured wines.

A white wine from Gaja that beautifully expresses the terroir of DOC Langhe and has the potential to age well.

It is undoubtedly one of the best white wines in the world.

In the mouth, you can sense the concentration of well-ripened fruit and a solid structure.

This Chardonnay brings out the full flavor of the Langhe terroir, with elegant acidity, sharp minerality, and a very long aftertaste.

Angelo Gaja

Emperor Gaya reigns as the top of the Italian wine world

The winery's name, Ca' Marcanda, means "House of Hopeless Negotiations" in the Piedmont dialect. The owner, Angelo Gaja, tried to negotiate with the owner of the land many times to acquire it, but was defeated every time. After 18 rounds of negotiations, he finally received his long-desired land. During the negotiations, Angelo Gaja's wife was often surprised and asked him, "Are you going to Ca' Marcanda (hopeless negotiations) again?", so he named the winery "Ca' Marcanda".

Gaja has firmly established itself as the king of Italian wine, holding a top-class position. It has received the highest rating (Tre Bicchieri) more than any other winery in the wine magazine Gambero Rosso. It is an unparalleled winery that releases wines with the belief that "always aiming for the highest quality and world class" in all of its lineup.
